Inspired by a canal house in Amsterdam from 1627 I built this microscale house with a crow-stepped gable. The base of the house is 10x11 studs and 875 bricks were used. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used.
Modern living at split levels. Three kinds of sections - striped, brown and olive green.
In Olive Sand House I combine the the desertlike surroundings and olive green/tan colour scheme of Whitebrick Sand House with the striped architecture of for example Green Rock House, Calmwater Cliff House and Vanilla House that has in some way become my trademark.
This historic precedent of Colonial Georgian Architecture sits at the heart of Philadelphia's old city center. Independence Hall also played a crucial role in the founding of the United States, as its storied assembly rooms witnessed the signing of both the Declaration of Independence in 1776 and the Constitution in 1787.
This Lego clock tower modular is inspired by Prague Astronomical Clock in Prague, Czech Republic. Besides the clock tower there are also three small houses. Total width of all buildings is 48 studs and about 4100 bricks were used. Computer rendering but only existing bricks were used.
This is a Lego modular of the F-town Building located in Sendai, Japan by architect Atelier Hitoshi Abe. About 8500 bricks of which over 3000 are white 1x1 plates. 😂 Computer rendering but only existing bricks were used. Reference images.

The rule of TV seems to be that every show needs to have a Christmas episode at some point. I guess this is what’s going on here… ;-)
Merry Christmas to all you builders out there who’s builds have been inspirational presents each and every day for the past years as well as to everyone who takes interest in what I’ve been doing here.
The „Full Steam 2“ series with LOTS of new builds will be my present under YOUR trees. I hope you’ll enjoy it.
Here is without doubt the most difficult moc I have ever made and also the most fragile.
The many angles gave me lots of difficulties and it was hard to hide the gaps and spaces between the three houses.
To be honest sometimes this moc was a nightmare 😆 but I am really proud of the result and the realism.
I hope you'll enjoy it.
Thanks to all Mocers that gave me inspiration.
This little something is a memorial in my home town to remember the first finding of salt, the city's reason for great wealth in the middle ages.
Oh, finally I can upload photos of my MOC about a Trullo of Alberobello!
I know, a model of Trulli already exists and it was uploaded on Lego Ideas too by Renato Renna. Unfortunately I'm fast in designing a new MOC, but very slow in buying pieces and building... this project was born in summer 2020, but however only now I can show it to the world!
By the way, I think that our two MOCs are very different, both for dimensions, scale and building techniques! I love Architecture scale and designing every building in small dimensions!
For people who don't know it, this is a kind of rural and ancient building typical of Apulian country, in the south of Italy. There is also a small town, Alberobello, designated as a UNESCO World Heritage, built with a lot of Trulli!
Things get quite TECHNIC-al when it comes to building Eiffel Tower!
You can be the first to see the BUILD process for my new & improved Eiffel Tower on my Patreon page TODAY when you become an IONIC patron. Link to my Patreon page ➡️🔗⬅️
Hey guys! I haven't uploaded anything in a while here. Still wanted to show you some WIPs of recent builds, in case you haven't seen them on Insta already. Enjoy.
Lego build of House for two families in Bahamas by Vardehagen and Anders Haagaas Grinde. However, my version is just for one family because I wanted to keep the size down. About 4250 bricks including about 1500 ”water bricks”. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used.
My first attempt at modern-ish architecture. The house is designed with a bachelor pad in mind, more specifically a guitarist/musician (hence the guitar collection and piano).

“… and the hanging gardens, …”
Nabopolassar, king of Babylon, concluded peace with the mighty ruler of Media, Cyaxares, after centuries of skirmishes and wars. This alliance proved to be the most powerful force the Middle East had hitherto seen. Together, they crushed the Assyrian empire and ruled from today’s Syria to Pakistan and India.
To seal this pact, Nabopolassar’s son, Nebuchadnezzar II, was to marry Cyaxares daughter, Amytis. For Amytis this meant to leave her home and family behind in Media’s mountainous Ecbatana for a life in the vast valley of the Euphrates. Amytis must have suffered under the separation from her loved ones because of this arranged marriage. But love between the Babylonian prince and Median princess may have been real. Nebuchadnezzar had a garden built for his wife, that shall remind her of her home in the Persian mountains. This paradise of precious fruit bearing palm trees and exotic flowers was laid out in tiers to mimic valleys and hills. Water was brought up to the highest level to run down in cataracts and quench the paradise’s thirst.
The might and prosperity of the kingdoms of Babylon and Media should vanish soon after Nebuchadnezzar and Cyaxares’ son, Astyages, have died. Their cultures, rites, and riches went down in the tumultuous rise of the Achaemenid Empire, and with it the king’s great gift to his queen.
Most likely, all of this is based upon myths and tales, spread by not very accurate ancient historians, and romanticized over the course of millennia. No one knows how such a structure could have been built in the sixth century BCE, or where it could have been located, as there are no traces of it among the ruins of the city of Babylon.
The model consists of 1,256 pieces and is built in scale 1:650. It is modelled after Herodotus’ descriptions of the gardens as a three-tiered complex, with columns, statues, and exotic plants. He further described that no mechanism to transport the water to the highest level was visible from the outside.
Old City Hotel got a slight renovation at its top floor facade.
The Olde Bakery complained about excessive use of crossaints...
Before the pandemic I brought this house to my work office to display it in my room. It has been there since then - alone. Now it's back at home with me and I decided to take some new - better - photos. So here they are!
Scandinavian Sea House MOC is a small - but functional - house by the sea. It is shaped like an L and located somewhere in the Swedish archipelago. Downstairs you find a small TV-room and kitchen next to a guest room and a laundry room. A storage space is hidden underneath the staircase, that leads up to the master bedroom. And now we come to the best part - the home spa! Here you find a Turkish bath and resting chairs in a peaceful environment with a panorama sea view. Double glass doors lead to the roof terrace outside.
Downtown Records is a modular record shop, ready and waiting to take it’s place in your LEGO city, I have packed it with brick built detail as well as custom printed parts (two of my favourite things about LEGO sets). I will gradually be revealing more of this project over time, but to start with I have revealed images of the building from the front, the side and the record store interior.
In total, Downtown Records contains about 3000 bricks and is divided into three sections. The bottom section includes a street scape including traffic light and crossing, leafy tree (I am particularly happy with how the tree turned out – I only had to rebuild it four times!) and a small news stand. Inside on the ground floor of the building there is the record store itself with shelves bulging with custom printed records on 2×2 tiles, a bathroom, and access to the staircase leading upstairs.
My aim with the design of the facade was to create a believable downtown two storey brick-faced building with stucco detailing and ornate architectural cornicing.
So if you would like to help make Downtown Records a real LEGO set, it’s free to support, all you need to do is head on over to LEGO Ideas, sign up for an account and hit that blue support button!

Exterior and main entrance.
Whitebrick Sand House is characterized by straight lines, glass and sandy colours. Placed in desertlike environment, yet close to civilization. Somewhere to relax.
On July 1st, I installed my recently completed commission piece depicting the Hawthorn Mall redevelopment! You can see the full diorama for yourself on the second-level in the Transformation Suite at the mall in Vernon Hills, IL.

Pyke, the seat of House Greyjoy.
Westeros.
Game of Thrones.
I'm a huge fan of Game of Thrones, so decided to build something related to that. The obvious castles would have been King's Landing or Winterfell but to me Pyke seemed more interesting, visually. I could build according to the description in the books but add something of my own as well and end up creating my version of it.
Also, I had an opportunity to do some more rockwork, :-) how could I lets that pass.... :-) :-) I used curved slope on plate for most of the rock.
Inspired by The Cary Building, New York City, an all-white LEGO facade. About 6750 bricks. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used.
With this building I wanted to create a single-color house and instead of colors using a lot of structure on the facade. The building can be opened at the back and when fully opened, the two parts of the back expands the facade on the front and it becomes a 64 studs wide building. On the ground floor there is an architecture office and above that a large apartment. About 9700 bricks. Computer rendering but only existing bricks/colors were used.
My LEGO build of Taipei 101, the tallest building in the world at its opening in 2004.

I turned a corner with this design! Literally. The front is almost complete, ready to add the last roof section then onto the left side.

I am proud to present you a very personal MOC. I am so fascinated by castles, especially Disney ones. To complete and expand my collection of mini Disney castles, I designed Snow White's castle from scratch, starting from artworks and merchandising.
I also use, for my construction, some old yellowed pieces, which give greater chromatic variety to the composition.

The third LEGO skyscraper goes up in Wasabi District! At just over 3 feet tall and over 5000 pieces, this 10-storey building is the first office skyscraper in Wasabi District!
It is a modular fish market sized 64x32 studs comprising seven pavilions and few bridges. The market is divided into wet goods and dry goods zone, with shops ranged from fish stalls, flower shop and grocery stores at Ground, and cafe and restaurant on the 1st Floor. Vibrant Coral and Dark Azur are adopted as colour palette of the design. Built with several types of window frames, a huge canopy provides weather proection to the people below. Enjoy shopping and eating with proper distancing!
My first heavily architecture focused creation (Raid) was a lot of fun to design and build, so I made another modern villa sort of building. One of the things I also wanted to integrate this time was functional lights, even though there is no detailed interior. More pictures will follow later.
I have wanted to build this house in Lego for a long time. However, the house is too big for minifig scale and a lot of details would be lost in micro scale. But when I saw this recently taken photo of the house, with the beautiful pink flowering tree in front of the house, it felt like a perfect alternative to build the tree with the house in the background.
A year ago I decided to only use existing bricks for my digital MOCs. But this time I really wanted to capture the original color of the house together with the color of the tree. Therefore this build is an exception from my rule. However, if you look at next/previous image you can see how this house would look if only existing bricks were used.
